City Crafter Challenge Week #252 "The Keys To The Time"

Hello everyone,
It is my great honor to host for the first time City Crafter Challenge. For this week's challenge I would like to see creations that have a key or a clock on them...
I chose this photo as an inspiration:

and made this card as a challenge inspiration:

I went with kind of clean shabby style if there is such a thing??? Just alot of layers and liquid pearls...

I used gesso, texture paste, liquid pearls, silicon mold frame, clock cutout from Tim Holtz' Lost and Found Stash and metal clock and key embellishments.

I love how the key and that little clock stand out against the light background.

One more look at the finished card...

Please make sure you stop by Darnell's fabulous blog. She is our star guest designer for the month of March!!

Also check out my teammies' fantastic creations they have "whipped up" for this week's challenge!

Wow Samra, gorgeous as always! Amazing work with the liquid pearls, they are so evenly spaced and sized! Love all your luscious layers and die cuts and the clock with the charm on it is brilliant! Wonderful frame and key too! Great take on the challenge! hugs :)

Can I get a "What, what!" This is AWESOME! I ran over to the challenge site and followed and I was amazed and excited at all the wonderful makes by everyone. What a great challenge theme too. You nailed it on the head for me when you mentioned how amazing the key and clock look in opposition to colors. If think your clean shabby style (LOL) is brilliant and inspiring.hugs,Lisa x

Your first theme and you created a stunner. Samra I am so happy that you joined our team. You've vhallenged me and that is a good thing. And got me out of my comfort zone. That's the fun part. And I am impressed by this card. A mix of techniques and it has your signature all over it. Gorgeous!XX
